It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia: "The Gang" Sings Boyz II Men

I didn't write about It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia last week. You know why? Because it was awful. And I didn't want to get angry emails from IASIP apologists explaining to me what a gay retard I am for not recognizing that a half hour of jokes about Danny DeVito shitting in a bed is genius. Well it is not genius. And I think it's time that we all just come to accept that this show, while having some of the highest highs, also has some of the lowest lows. But last night's was good. "We all have cats we would like to be playing with right now." Also, this happened for some reason.

Seriously, I don't know why they did that. I guess every few years a show has to use "End of the Road" Boyz II Men. for comic relief. Like when Seth Cohen was listening to "End of the Road" after his break up from Summer in season 1 of The O.C.* Nullus on remembering that, BTW.

*Footnote for the Superfans: I was doing some research on the time when Seth Cohen was listening to "End of the Road" after his break up from Summer in season 1 of The O.C. and I found this blog with a list of the top 10 musical moments from that show. Not only is the Boyz II Men moment at the top of the list, but MORE IMPORTANTLY, the blogger claims to BE A WRITER ON IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY. I would rest my case if I knew what my case was.

Gabe, you do know that they weren't singing End of the Road but It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday (hence the words they were singing)

V decided to go to your work today and slap the dick out of your mouth (nullus).

I've already seen it happen twice elsewhere on this, the first National GTYWASTDOOYM Day.

If there weren't videos of me doing the exact (almost) same thing with my friends on facebook, I would think she was a lot funnier.
It hits too close to home.

Last week's episode was great, I don't know what you're talking about, man. Not saying it was genius, but c'mon, as DeVito says at the end of the episode, "Poop is funny!" Plus, Artemis! ARTEMIS! Any episode with Artemis is certified gold, and this one was no exception.

Also, they were probably singing Boyz II Men because, you know, they're from Philly. Gotta represent.

What about Dee trying to be like Sex and the City after seeing the movie? And the waitress getting drunk in the shoe store? I was paying more attention to that than the poop.

Bleached asshole!
That episode WAS genius and you are a gay retard for not recognizing it.
(This episode was genius too.)

You mentioned it so that means it's fair game to say..........the poop episode was AWESOME!! It might be one of my top 5 favorites. And Artimis was brilliant. I can't be the only one that thinks that.
I haven't seen this episode yet so no comment there :)

ARTEMIS. She ups the level of any episode. They could just sit around the bar all day and bring her in at the end and I'll watch it many times. Huh-what?
